Picture Book Review: Big Red Barn by Margaret Wise Brown

Availability: Click for an available copy from Amazon

In the past, a picture book author wasn’t worth his or her weight in salt if they didn’t do a barn or rural themed book. In fact, in the early years of children’s literature, the city and all things in it were considered bad and the simple rural life found in the country was the true ideal for all boys and girls. In this barnyard tale, the animals live in tranquility with one another as a day in the life of a farm is described with rhythmic text.
